2006 Mazda Mazda5 - Great vehicle for a family with multiple children in car seats.

Great six-person vehicle. I like that it has sliding doors to make it easier to get into when parked close to another vehicle. Also love that it has a third row to be able to fit all our children and their car seats. When using the third row, there isn't much space left for anything else like groceries or a stroller. Also, not much leg room in the passenger seat with a rear-facing infant behind the seat. It runs very loud and has expensive work that needs to be done to fix the problem. It also has rust on both of the rear tire wells.

Story

Before having our last baby, we didn't need the third row for seating. We went to the Milford Drive In and folded down the last row. The kids made a big bed out of pillows and blankets. They loved watching the movies from the back of the van with their pizza and candy.

Pros

Second row is captains chairs which lift up with storage under the seats. The second row also has the LATCH system for car seats to connect to. Has a third row, which is amazing for families with multiple children. The whole vehicle is capable of fitting four car seats. The third row folds down flat. The second row folds into itself making a large area that can be used for moving big items. Has eight cup holders throughout the van. Power windows as well as a control for the driver to lock the passenger windows for child safety. Has child locks to prevent children from opening doors while v... (more)

Cons

We wish there was more storage space in the vehicle while using the third row. It would also be more comfortable if there was more leg space for the passenger in the front seat.

2006 Mazda Mazda5 - Love my "5"

I've owned my Mazda 5 for ten years now, and it's still going strong! I can't tell you how many people I have recommended this car to, and I'm sad that they will no longer be produced after this year. The "5" has been a reliable vehicle for me, with a minimum of maintenance issues over the years (mainly due to wear and tear). The interior, while not luxurious, is spacious and comfortable, and will seat six adults, although the two in the back seat may be a bit cramped. I love the "5" for hauling my dog around to various adventures.

Story

I have many fond memories of loading up my dog into the back of the "5" and setting out for hiking adventures.

Pros

The vehicle was reasonably priced and gave a lot of bang for the buck. I love the sunroof and sliding side doors. It drives like a dream and has a great turning ratio, making it easy to park.

Cons

The gas mileage could be better, and I wish the outside mirrors were heated.
